Lisbon has transformed into one of Europe's fastest-growing technology and startup hubs while remaining Portugal's EU institutional and diplomatic center. Web Summit and Portugal Tech Week draw international founders and investors to venues such as the Altice Arena and FIL at Parque das Nacoes, the Portuguese Assembly of the Republic and Lisbon-based EU agencies host policy meetings, and the Community of Portuguese Language Countries (CPLP) secretariat anchors Lusophone trade missions and investment forums tied to Angola, Mozambique, and Brazil. The Lisbon Court of Appeal and Commercial Court require certified interpreters for hearings and cross-border M&A, and congresses at the Lisbon Congress Centre and the Centro Cultural de Belem round out a demand profile spanning technology, legal, government, tourism, maritime, and medical settings, with the choice between European and Brazilian Portuguese often mattering as much as the language pair itself.
BeTranslated provides simultaneous interpreting in ISO-compliant booths for conferences, consecutive interpreting for meetings and hearings, whispered (chuchotage) and liaison interpreting for small groups, and remote formats including remote simultaneous interpreting, video remote interpreting, and over-the-phone interpreting, with booths and equipment supplied where a venue lacks built-in cabins. Our service covers European Portuguese, Brazilian Portuguese, Lusophone African variants, Spanish, French, and Arabic alongside English, German, Italian, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, and Turkish, and we match interpreters to the right Portuguese variant for government, court, and bilateral settings, with certified interpreters available for Portuguese court and notarial proceedings.
